If the 6th-century plague was called the Justinian Plague, after the ruler of the empire whose end it marked, this would be the Trumpian Plague.
It appears to be a FPGA-backed device with a C64 core. I wonder if it’d be capable of running cores simulating more powerful systems as well, though if the keyboard layout is just the old-school C64 one, it may be awkward to use.
The UK’s nuclear arsenal is still dependent on the US for maintenance, with warheads going to North Carolina periodically.
The new strategic nukes Starmer is ordering will be tied into the US infrastructure, as are the F-35s to launch them, though given the last-resort nature of nuclear weapons, their actual purpose may be to keep Trump onside politically while Britain’s everyday military capabilities integrate more closely with its European neighbours.
Apparently the Argentine equivalent is something like “take your hat off, you’re not in this photo”

There was an old wacky-crooks story about a one-legged man who kept getting arrested stealing display shoes from shops when they matched his remaining leg.
About 500m or, if I want to go to a larger supermarket, about 2km.
There’s probably a market for targeting people matching not only a demographic category but the combination of one and attempts to keep it private, like religious conservatives who browse gay porn in incognito mode or seemingly progressive people who have right-wing views they keep secret.
If they do a deal with the Green Party, then maybe they can make inroads. Otherwise, they’ll just split the left vote and help Labour/Farage.
A good start.
IIRC, in the early 20th century, it was considered fashionable in some segments of French Canada to get all one’s teeth pulled out and replaced with dentures, so maybe time is a flat circle here.
Apparently it’s an AMD Artix 7.
